Took the kids out for a quick hike this morning. Then they asked their dad to join us, and I was surprised he said yes. We got to the ruins with a minimum of complaining from him, and the kids played for a while. We decided to head up to one of the mines behind the ruins. That trail is a little rough, but the kids were handling it okay. The other parent though...all I heard was, "This is steep and rocky." I guess he was expecting pavement and escalators. I suggested that he was better suited for walking laps around the parking lot, which led to us turning around just shy of the mine.

Once we got back down to the ruins, Daniela was there with her kids. The kids were excited to see each other, and all played at the ruins for a few more minutes, then we all walked back down to the cars together. A little warm today, but I am looking very forward to the cooler temps starting on Sunday!
